<p>I'll admit. I've been busy posting other places and not very good at doing all of the activities. That's alright. It has been in my thoughts. I'm thinking about next year making it a sort of score card where you add your points up in the end because I seriously doubt anyone did ALL of the items!</p>

<p>SO, for the last day I have changed it to HallowZINE! This is a day to remember zines and zinesters that are no longer with us. I even made a sort of silly shrine online where you can light fake candles for past zines and zinesters. <a href="http://nshrine.com/shrine/HallowZINE" target="_blank">http://nshrine.com/shrine/HallowZINE</a></p>

<p>I pledged to do every single challenge listed - unfortunately due to lack of planning I didn't manage to complete a few, but did most of them. I also read a zine every single day this month!

<p>Anybody else feels like it's a shame that so many threads are dead in here?Now that the IZM is on, it would be really cool to for me to have some more interaction with other people who make zines online! Anybody has an idea where people are? Please don't tell me it's all facebook and twitter now :(</p>

<p>I am working on a zine for this month. Will it be done in 24 hours?<br/><br/>Not sure, but I think I will be close. If I do like 12 today and 12 tomorrow, I will be happy.<br/><br/>Heck maybe this 24 hour zine can be done in say any 24 hours you want over the month just as long as you are done before August, right?<br/><br/>The plan is to post my zine for free on here as a PDF in both printable and readable format.<br/><br/>Brian<br/><br/></p>

<p>The comic book and new colored cover sound really cool. I was just printing off some copies of my zine at a copy shop and a guy outside the shop asked me about them as I left. I sat down and we had a long conversation about travel and Africa and future plans. I should carry these things around more often!</p>

<p>Thanks for asking Brian, I will make all 31 pages into a zine. Just a simple, old-fashioned comic zine with a nice, simple layout. I want to do number five of the challenges (teach yourself a new zine skill) to make a coloured cover for it once it's printed. I'm pretty excited about giving it away to people and distros! :)</p>
<p>And yeah, we should for sure get more active and maybe people will rise from the dead again...I'm trying to reply to interesting post in every one of the groups I'm in, but of course, time is an issue!<br/> <br/>
